Chapter 1537 What kind of joke is this?
"Howl!" "Howl …"
The sounds came one after another, deafening, and the roots of the trees in the sky danced even more crazily. Even the upper part of the trunk and branches were twisting.
At this moment, the black tree was so angry that it seemed like it wanted to shatter the pain.
"What happened to that tree?"
"What is Gu Ying doing?"
"..."
After calming down a bit, the crowd was shocked to see what was happening to the giant tree in front of them.
Not long after that fellow called Gu Ying sat down, the giant black tree seemed to have gone mad, as if it couldn"t wait to tear it to pieces. However, no matter how the tree roots danced, they couldn"t touch his body in the slightest. It seemed as if there was an invisible barrier at the bottom of the tree that continuously deflected the descending tree roots.
At the sight of this, Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou both felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders. A hint of a smile flashed across their eyes.
The rest of the people in the tunnel were filled with endless curiosity. The tree that had already swallowed over a thousand cultivators did not dare to attack. It was enough to send the giant tree into a frenzy … How could a mere level three Heavenly Lord possess such a shocking ability?
"Brother Huang, Brother Huang, what is the origin of the Gu Ying from your "Spring Dragon Immortal Sect"?"
"I don"t know. He just joined us a few days ago, and during that time, Elder Meng of our sect also sent countless people from the Dragon Reaching City to search for him, wanting to bring him into our sect. That"s right, there are people from your Endless City, the Imperial Palace and other sects who partic.i.p.ated in the search. "
"That"s right, I"ve also heard about it. Indeed, there was such a thing. So many people searched for almost ten days but still could not find it. In the end, he took the initiative to appear and joined the Spring Dragon Immortal"s Gate."
"..."
In the crowd, all sorts of news regarding "Gu Ying" spread like wildfire.
At the bottom of the huge tree, Tang Huan stood firmly on top of it.
At this moment, no matter if it was the "Nine Yang Divine Furnace" or the formed soul from forty thousand dao crystals, both had been activated to their limits. Inside the cave dwelling s.p.a.ce that the "Myriad Sword Heavenly Diagram" carried, the "Limitless Sword Formation" was also activated quickly, the power of the sucking had reached an unprecedented stage.
At this point, the tree could no longer hold on.
Immediately after, a black Qi left the roots of the huge tree and entered Tang Huan"s palm, then straight into the Dantian, which was then absorbed by the "Myriad Sword Heavenly Diagram".
Following that was the second, the third …
It was unending!
It was as if a small hole had been drilled through the st.u.r.dy dam. Thin streams of water continuously gushed out of the hole, unable to be filled anymore.
Tang Huan heaved a sigh of relief. The moment the hole was opened, the black tree could no longer hold on.
The opening would only grow bigger and bigger and the power of the black tree would dissipate faster and faster. However, it would likely take a very long time to completely absorb the black tree"s power. Of course, Tang Huan did not care about this. If he could repair the cave, it would take a long time.
"Woo woo …"
The giant tree"s cry became increasingly ear-piercing and the giant black tree also became increasingly manic. However, no matter how much it struggled, it was unable to stop its power from flowing away.
Even though they knew that the giant tree could not hurt them, they still felt a sense of dread when they saw how berserk the tree was. Tens of thousands of cultivators couldn"t help but feel fear and trepidation at the sight of it.
Only after a long while did everyone"s minds calm down. However, the giant tree was still as crazy as before. Earth-shaking sounds echoed back and forth in the tunnel.
After an unknown amount of time, almost all of the cultivators had used up a lot of their energy. Some of the weaker cultivators had no choice but to start consuming pills, refining them to replenish their Tian Yuan Qi.
Thousands of meters away, Tang Huan was still quietly sitting at the bottom of the tree, while the giant tree was also crazily waving its long beard, roaring angrily. Towards such a scene, many of the cultivators were already numb to it. No matter how the black tree moved, it could not hurt a single hair on Tang Huan.
At first, there were still people who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity when the giant tree was distracted to be attracted by Tang Huan to slip away.
Unfortunately, those Heavenly Monarchs who wanted to fish in troubled waters all ended up in failure. As for the price of failure, it was their lives. The completely enraged black tree no longer possessed their flesh and blood souls, but had turned their flesh body into a b.l.o.o.d.y mist.
After losing more than ten people in a row, the other cultivators completely gave up on this idea.
Afterwards, everyone continued to ponder over how to pa.s.s through the pa.s.sage. They had tried many times, but all of them had failed. Although no one died, the number of lost artifacts was as high as a thousand. All of them were shattered by the tree root.
Even though the tens of thousands of cultivators were still trying to figure out a way, they were trying less and less.
"Did anyone notice that the tree seemed to have shrunk a little?" A crisp voice suddenly sounded from the crowd. The one who spoke was a well-developed black clothed woman. Her eyes were fixed on the giant tree, and her pretty face was covered in doubt and surprise.
"A bit small? How is that possible? "
"Junior Sister Xue, what are you joking about?"
"..."
When the nearby cultivators heard this, they could not help but be stunned. However, they instantly broke out into laughter as if they had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Even though he said that, everyone"s eyes involuntarily looked towards the black tree.
"It really is too short..."
"It"s not just a small section, it"s probably dozens of meters!"
"Hiss, how did it suddenly become shorter?"
"..."
His eyes were wide open as if they had seen a ghost. They had never thought about this before, but now that the woman in black had reminded them, they seemed to wake up from a dream. The huge black tree that was hundreds of meters tall was actually much shorter than when they first saw it.
This news immediately swept through the entire tunnel like a storm.
Within the crowd, figures who were sitting cross-legged jumped up like springs and looked towards the giant tree in disbelief.
The giant tree was getting shorter. This was a good sign.
If it continued to get shorter like this, everyone could easily pa.s.s through this pa.s.sage! When their thoughts reached this point, delight immediately surfaced from the depths of everyone"s eyes. After a brief moment of joy, countless gazes turned to the figure seated cross-legged at the bottom of the tree.
Although no one knew what he had done, they knew that he must have been connected to the change in the tree.
After all, it was impossible for that terrifying giant tree to suddenly grow shorter for no reason.
"Junior brother Gu!" It must be junior brother Gu! " Tang ManRou also thought of this and immediately beamed as she happily waved her small fists.
"I really didn"t expect that Junior Brother Gu Ying would actually have this kind of ability."
Gu Caiwei murmured, her clear and beautiful eyes uncontrollably flas.h.i.+ng with joy. "That strange tree will definitely continue to shrink …"
"..."
